Re: unusual streaming (RTMPT, port:80) www.tvs.pl


,

thank you chap. i have removed the "t" and the download finishes after a while. the file size is big (similar to rtmpdump and HiDownload ). 2 testruns give 2 different file sizes. both videos play seemingly fine. ( and what about Coojah's "RTMP Record"-mode here? CooJah's "RTMP Recording"-mode doesn't seem to save anything? )

result (downloaded not as "live video"):
testrun1: 366 MB (384.750.520 Bytes), crc32: 289F67F2
testrun2: 386 MB (405.092.439 Bytes), crc32: 783C388F

Verdict:
Apparently the RTMPT stream is still a challenge to all software coders. No software produced 100% perfect results. And whatever you download, you can be sure that the file is NO WAY THE SERVER FILE. If you need perfect video server files, then delete your downloaded streams!! Otherwise, here is the ranking (as of early May, 2011):

1st prize: n/a
shared 2nd prize: Replay Media Catcher. file size is reproducibly 170MB, and video can be played back smoothly (with minimal audible defects in VLC media player). downloaded *.FLV-file required heavy fixing ("Fix duration" + "Fix Time")!
shared 2nd prize: rtmpdump (command line version by nullacht). file size is reproducibly 170MB, and video can be played back smoothly (with ?? audible defects in VLC media player). no fixing of the *.FLV was needed.
shared 3rd prize: Blader. 2 test drives result in 2 file sizes (~360MB). video plays smoothly in all players. no sign of videographic or audible corruption.
shared 3rd prize: HiDownload . here too, 2 test drives, 2 file sizes (350-370MB). video plays smoothly in all players. no sign of videographic or audible corruption.
pending: GetFLV. (GFLV Team promised to include RTMPT support in some future versions/updates of their product. fingers crossed!)
